A baby is born with the physique of a geriatric, and over the course of his lengthy and eventful life he grows steadily younger. A girl he meets in his early years becomes the love of his life, but as they age in different directions, both realise they have only a limited time to be together. David Fincher's romantic fantasy drama, starring Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett, Taraji P Henson and Tilda Swinton.

Born under unusual circumstances, Benjamin Button springs into being as an elderly man in a New Orleans nursing home and ages in reverse. Twelve years after his birth, he meets Daisy, a child who flits in and out of his life as she grows up to be a dancer. Though he has all sorts of unusual adventures over the course of his life, it is his relationship with Daisy, and the hope that they will come together at the right time, that drives Benjamin forward.
